The 1970 total population of 1744 would now be estimated to be 15S0. The aver- age value for an owner unit in the target area was $10,050.00 compared with a $20,300.00 censu~ tract average and the average target area contract rent was $89.00 compared with $103.00 for the census tracts.

This target area is commonly known as the Logan Area and consists of seven blocks in Census Tract 744.01 situated north of Fruit Street between Santiago Avenue and the railroad right of way to the Santa Aha Freeway. One hundred and thirty units were surveyed within this mixed use area of residential and in- dustrial use. This area was the topic of an lndepth study pre- pared for the City of Santa Aha by the firm of Haworth, Anderson, and Lafer in 1973. The basic research and data produced by their report was confirmed by the parcel by parcel survey c~nd~cted by Urban Futures. ~ ~-+~r.~ ~ ~o_Q]~ ~ t-tre target extremely old, ~Ow~ver the majority (95%) could have a life expectancy of a minimum of ten years, r, ~b~ ~ategories quality of maintenance and premise ra~n~ 0~iy-B ~ received good ratings while 58 units (44.6%) were rated as poo~. A mid-range longevity factor was established and an overall poo~ parcel rating for the target area, The Overall Parcel Rating was the lowest of all the target areas. The housing stock con- dition factor was the second poorest of the eleven target areas. The factors pointed out regarding the Multiple Unit Survey' concerning Central Corridor Target Area "A" would also hold true for this target area as it is one of the four target areas or portions of target areas found within Census Tract 744.01. The 1970 Block Statistics indicate an overcrowding factor of 1.01 persons or more per room for 46 (33%) of the then total of 138 units. Thirty-three percent of the units were owner occupied and sixty-two percent rentals. The average unit value of the target area was $15,950 and the average contract rent $63.50 compared with census tract averages of $19,200 and $104.00 re- spectively. Twenty-five units were one person households, twenty-three had female heads of households, and twenty-seven units were listed as lacking some or all plumbing facilities. The 1970 population of 507 would be estimated to be 455 as of 1974. D.

There were 190 units (87%) built prior to 1945 and approximately one out of four units has an anticipated life expectancy of less than ten years. Both the quality of mainte-
